Awards & Recognition

Parents and students choose us for the small school personalized care they receive from teachers and staff, for the “learn by doing” education that inspires our students’ performance, and for our focus of keeping the environment at the center of everything we do.

The results foster a nationally recognized award winning education and a choice for parents who want their children to be natural leaders.

Since 1999, Prairie Crossing Charter School has been providing an exceptional public school education to hundreds of families per year. With a maximum enrollment of 432 students in Kindergarten through 8th grade, we provide personalized attention that parents and students deserve and expect. Class sizes in each grade level are deliberately small.
